George Michael has now finally been discharged from hospital following his harrowing car accident on the M1 motorway in Hertfordshire, England.

The 'Faith' singer suffered a nasty head injury and a bad case of shock after falling from the passenger side of a Range Rover which left him lying in the road before a fellow driver rushed to his aid. He was later airlifted to hospital. A statement on his website read, 'We can confirm that George Michael has been discharged from hospital and continues to rest and recuperate. He is well and thanks everyone for all the messages of support.'

Katherine Fox, a passer-by who approached the injured singer, told the BBC she 'saw a body lying in the road' and instinctively went into 'caring mode'. However, she initially did not know it was the former Wham! frontman she was reassuring until she discovered an article online. 'He had a deep cut above his left eyebrow which was really bleeding down his face into his teeth', she explained. 'Even if I had known who it was, I probably wouldn't have recognised him.' Despite Michael's website describing his injured as 'superficial', he was forced to remain in hospital for eleven days.
